This statistic shows the total value of the soft drinks market in the United Kingdom (UK) from 2012 to 2017.

In 2016, the market value of soft drinks reached around 16.9 billion euros.

The market share of soft drink types in the United Kingdom is predominantly made up of carbonates, with the value of the market experiencing year on year increases.

Levels of consumption, on the other hand, are decreasing and, with the incoming sugar tax levy due to be introduced in the Spring of 2018, the future of soft drink consumption remains uncertain.

Average retail prices have previously already risen, with consumption seemingly suffering as a result.
